GH3 new(?) factoids

Just took a close look at the Panasonic US GH3 site and found several things I wasn't aware of. First, a true pinpoint focus - a cross instead of the GH2's little box. Next, new MF assist mag. levels of 4, 5, and 10X - the 4X visible as a box within the full frame, and a real boon for handheld assist. Great news for birders!

Last, as I suspected, the grip will be an option rather than supplied. Can't imagine it will be over $100 with it's simplicity, though.
